I would like to see Pres. Trump state he will re-task the 87,000 IRS agent hired by the Biden administration to working on immigration issues.

Pipelines vs Trains vs Cargo Ships
Not sure if these figures are accurate, but until somebody proves different..!!!!

Not sure if these figures are accurate, but until somebody proves different..!!!!
Someone with a sharp, mathematical mind and the capacity to do a lot of research spent time putting these numbers together:
******************************************************* ******************************************************* ********************************
1 Train has 100 cars, 2 engines and weighs 27,240,000 LBS
1 Train carries 3,000,000 gallons of oil.
1 train uses 55.5 gallons of diesel per mile.
It takes 119,000 gallons of diesel to go 2150 miles from Hardidsy, AB to Freeport, TX.
The Keystone pipeline was to deliver 34,860,000 gallons of oil per day.
It would take 12 trains and 1,428,000 gallons of diesel to deliver that amount. PER DAY!
521,220,000 gallons of diesel per year.
The oil will still go to market with or without the pipeline.
By stopping the pipeline billions of gallons of diesel will be wasted and pollute needlessly. Does that make you feel good?
Stop the Tar Sands all together? Then we must ship the oil from the overseas sandbox.
1 large oil tanker can haul 120,000,000 gallons of oil.
1 boat takes 15 days to float across the Atlantic.
1 boat uses 63,000 gallons of fuel PER DAY, that is about 1 million gallons of the most polluting type fuel in the world PER TRIP.*(See below).
Or take 3.5 days for the Keystone Pipeline to move the same amount of oil with a fraction of the pollution.
In international waters ship emissions remain one of the least regulated parts of our global transportation system. The fuel used in ships is waste oil, basically what is left over after the crude oil refining process. It is the same as
asphalt and is so thick that when cold it can be walked upon. It's the cheapest and most polluting fuel available and the world's 90,000 ships chew through an astonishing 7.29 million barrels of it each day, or more than 84% of all
exported oil production from Saudi Arabia.
Shipping is by far the biggest transport polluter in the world. There are 760 million cars in the world today emitting approx 78,599 tons of Sulfur Oxides (SOx) ANNUALLY. The world's 90,000 vessels burn approx 370 million tons of fuel
per year emitting 20 million tons of Sulfur Oxides. That equates to 260 times MORE Sulfur Oxides being emitted by ships than the WORLDS ENTIRE CAR FLEET. One large ship alone can generate approx. 5,200 tons of sulfur oxide
pollution in a year, meaning that 15 of the largest ships now emit as much SOx as the world's 760 million cars.
Eliminate all gas consuming cars and diesel vehicles
Worldwide car gas consumption is 403,583,712,000 gallons a year. That's Billion.
Worldwide oil consumption is 1,500,000,000,000 gallons a year. That's Trillion.
It takes 2.15 gallons of oil to make 1 gallon of gasoline/petrol, and 0.6 gal of diesel.
So it takes 867,704,980,800 gallons of oil to run the worlds cars and most diesel vehicles for a year and some ships
That leaves 632,295,019,200 gallons of oil for other uses.
Passenger vehicles are only a very small percentage of the problem. If emissions are the problem why not just capture them at the exhaust? Create an industry to clean exhaust instead of crushing an entire industry and building a
complete untested, replacement industry?
So are we willing to dramatically increase mining to get all the minerals necessary to make all these batteries and electric motors? Mining is far worse for the environment than oil extraction.
Killing Keystone was glibly decided by EMOTIONAL CLIMATE ALARMISTS WITHOUT ANY KNOWLEDGE of our world energy!
Evil bureaucrats and politicians are attempting to fool America to boost their standing with Foreign paymasters.
